Product Overview
The Regatta Junior Kids Pro Stormbreak Jacket is a technically proficient outer layer designed to provide reliable protection for younger wearers against the unpredictable British weather. Constructed from high-quality Hydrafort 5000 polyester, this jacket is engineered to be entirely waterproof and windproof, making it an essential piece of equipment for outdoor activities. Whether for school trips, outdoor clubs, or supporting a family business on-site, this jacket ensures that rain and wind do not interfere with the task at hand. Its lightweight construction allows for a full range of movement, ensuring the wearer remains comfortable and unrestricted throughout the day.
Key Features
- Waterproof Hydrafort 5000 polyester fabric: This technical material provides a reliable barrier against heavy rain, keeping the wearer dry in challenging conditions.
- Windproof fabric: The tight weave of the polyester blocks wind effectively, helping to maintain body temperature in exposed environments.
- Taped seams: Every structural join is sealed with waterproof tape to prevent moisture from seeping through the stitching.
- Integral hood: A built-in hood offers immediate protection for the head and neck as soon as the weather turns.
- Reflective trim detail: Positioned at the back hem, this feature enhances the visibility of the wearer in low-light conditions, providing an extra layer of safety.
- Elasticated cuffs: These provide a secure and comfortable fit around the wrists, preventing drafts and rain from entering the sleeves.
Design & Performance
Performance is at the heart of the Stormbreak jacket. The use of Hydrafort 5000 technology means the fabric has been tested to withstand significant water pressure while remaining lightweight and easy to wear. Unlike heavier, bulkier coats, this jacket is designed for agility. The inclusion of two lower pockets offers practical storage for small items or a place to keep hands sheltered. The durable 100% polyester composition ensures the garment can handle the rigours of active use, while the taped seams provide the technical assurance required for true waterproof performance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This jacket is an excellent candidate for customisation, allowing you to create a professional appearance for junior teams or organisations. Embroidery is particularly effective for adding school crests or company logos, providing a durable and textured finish that maintains its quality over time. For larger, more vibrant designs or back lettering, our high-quality printing process is the ideal choice. All customisation is performed by our expert in-house team in Telford, utilising the knowledge we have gained since we were established in 1976.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for junior sports teams, educational institutions, and youth organisations that require a uniform look with weather protection. It is also a practical choice for family-run trade businesses where children may be present on-site or representing the company at outdoor events. Its lightweight nature also makes it a sensible choice for packing into school bags for daily use.

Practical Advice
To achieve the best results in cold weather, we recommend layering this jacket over a fleece or a medium-weight sweatshirt. Because it is a lightweight shell, sizing should be considered carefully if it is intended to be worn over multiple layers of clothing. For total weather protection, this jacket is designed to be coordinated with the matching Kids Pro Stormbreak overtrousers.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the Hydrafort 5000 fabric, we recommend a delicate wash. This gentler cycle helps to preserve the waterproof coating and the integrity of the taped seams, ensuring the jacket remains functional for longer.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment. Bleach is highly abrasive and will break down the polyester fibres and damage any custom embroidery or print designs. Similarly, dry cleaning should be avoided as the chemicals used can strip away the waterproof finish.
When drying, use a low tumble dry setting. High heat can damage the synthetic fibres and cause the fabric to lose its shape. Always ensure that all fasteners, including zips and pockets, are closed before washing and drying to prevent them from snagging on the fabric or your branding.
If ironing is required, use a cool iron on the outer side of the fabric only. Applying too much heat can melt the polyester material. Finally, ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it; storing the garment while damp can lead to the growth of mildew and permanent damage to the fabric.
